It's Complicated: The Social Lives of Networked Teens (must, MUST read)

I figured the response - if I got one (thanks BTW) - would be something like that. My feeling, though, is that it is incredibly tough to predict the future and that the signal-to-noise ratio means that while this book might predict the future it almost definitely won’t. On the upside, I don’t need to know about the future in order to take action tomorrow. I can just read BB (or the Verge, Wired, etc) and know what’s up at any given time and then check out whatever is the new thing.

The above being said, since I already don’t bother with instagram, twitter, tumblr, and most of that other, similar stuff I doubt I’m going to be doing anything different anyhow. New is fine but it has to be a LOT better than whatever it’s superseding in order for me to get the motivation to bother with it.
